More haul for today.
Sapued all Quick Kick.

wow...
i bought 1 of quick kick, spirit iron knife and shipwreck each... couldnt bring myself to buy doc though....
i think they r pretty neat figures.. jz too bad quickkick cant hold his sword properly...
btw, can spirit iron knife hold all his accessories?

i sensed a clone custom army

The left hand has tighter weapon grip compared to the right.
If positioned properly ,he can also hold the snakes.
As for Quick Kick,I agree the grip is rather loose on the katana.Perhaps manually squeezing in the fingers might produce better results.

Yeah ,spam pics coz thread very slow.
You need Buzzer to complete the original 'Noks lineup,bro.
Sure hope Zarana makes it to Malaysia.
Else have to fork out huge amount to purchase from elsewhere.

Yes, Cycle Armor pics please

And to you guys, your customs look good. Sorry I didn't comment on them earlier, I still fear cracking my Joes apart and doing customs of my own

Anyway, since Skystriker is being released next month (according to BBTS), how many will you guys be getting? I've been thinking of getting 3, but settling for 2 initially (GF got mad when I said 3 )

might be buying 1 skystriker, see the price n review
its a 1 figure cockpit?

Yeah it fits one figure only. Not that I mind, the plane itself looks good but if follow a real F-14 Tomcat, should fit 2. But meh, I don't care, 2 or 1 pilots, I just want it NOW

Thanks for the kind words bro.
The only cracking you'll be doing is on the torso.Other than that,it's pretty safe.
I'd wrecked 2-3 figs trying to crack the torso open ,hence all my customs does not involve cracking.

As for Skystriker, I won't be getting any.I'm more towards ground vehicles.Most likely will grab the VAMP.
I saw the Cycle Armor listed on evilbay for a ridiculous pricin of over RM200 inc. shipping.

Anyways, some good news on GI Joe 2 courtesy of Hisstank.

* Storm Shadow will have a new look in GI Joe 2
* Lee Byung Hun will leave for the US later this month, for site preparation for GI Joe 2, which includes martial arts training.
* Snake Eyes & Storm Shadow(said to be more powerful than before) are said to have more intense confrontations in the movie.

I know, you gave me pointers on how to do it..but even then, on a Neo Viper, it's a bit sad since they're part of my el-cheapo Neo Viper squad

And I thought you already have a Vamp and that's why you skipped the first re-release? What's the difference between the 2nd release and the initial Vamp POC wave 2 Bravo?

Regarding the movie, SE with no lips = fix that sh|t already. SS with a long coat = fix this sh|t too. And more vehicles please; bring in the HISS tank!!

Well, it's your choice then bro.But I still suggest trying on 1 figure.God knows how many figs I had damaged in the past.
The upcoming VAMP is a repaint of POC's version .I skipped POC's as I prefer it in green ,to match my 25th VAMP.
Yeah, SS with coat was and still, is horrible ,not to mention on the action figure,it hindered SS's leg movement.

Hi..want to ask..if dont crack open the torso then how to paint that area??
last time i try to paint my figure but the chest movement scratch out my paint job...got any tutorial to settle this??

Avoid moving the chest area then .
But seriously,I have not encountered paint chipping on the chest area.On the joints ,yes but not the torso.
Once you crack the torso apart ,it won't fit back properly.There's a chance the fig is damaged.

sorry, bad english.. i mean the joint between the chest and abs area..
heard that they repaired the damage using putty..which need a lot of sanding job to be done...

lol..even opening those part is hard enough to me....
